Cat Vs. Cat

Keeping Peace When You Have More Than One Cat

From the author of Catwise and Think Like a Cat , the ultimate resource for managing a multi-pet household.

Pam Johnson-Bennett, the award-winning author and feline behaviorist, shows how adding another cat to your home does not have to be the start of a kitty apocalypse. Although cats are often misunderstood as natural loners, Johnson-Bennett shows how to plan, set up, and maintain a home environment that will help multiple cats--and their owners--live in peace. Cat vs. Cat will help readers understand the importance of territory, the specialized communication cats use to establish relationships and hierarchies, and how to interpret the so-called "bad behavior" that leads so many owners to needless frustration. Offering a wealth of information on how to diffuse tension, prevent squabbles and ambushes, blend two families, or help the elder kitty in your family, Cat vs. Cat is a welcome resource for both seasoned and prospective guardians of cat families large and small.

This book is a treasure. I've had multiple cats for decades, and the insights here are invaluable. It's so important to think like a cat in order to understand what the heck is happening in a multi-cat household! The style is very down-to-earth without being stiff, so it's quite readable.
